Subject: downed animals
Dear Sir/ Madam,
I am writing to you on behalf of the downed animals awaiting slaughter.
These poor creatures are treated in an appalling manner, and I am writing to
you asking for Humane Treatment. Animals can be left for hours without
shade or water. When they are ready many cannot walk and are treated
barbarically. Being dragged across the ground, Lifted by a fork lift and
dumped in a death pile while some are still alive or dragged into the
slaughterhouse for processing. No amount of money or can account for this
horrendous treatment of innocent animals. Please you must find this
treatment unacceptable and laws must be implemented to STOP the suffering.
Thank you for your time.
Mrs Joanne Riley
